Hygrophorus glutinosus n. sp. 



Pileus fleshy, firm, convex, glutinous, white, sometimes tinged 

 with yellow by the drying of the gluten, the margin involute^ 

 flesh white; lamellae subdistant, adnate, white; stem equals 

 solid, white, floecose tomentose and glutinous below the glutin- 

 ous annulus, studded above with glandular drops of moisture 

 which in drying form reddish dots; spores .0003-0004 of an inch 

 long, .0002-.00024 broad. 



Pileus 1-2 inches broad; stem about 1 inch long, 3-4 lines thick. 



In the fresh plant the lower part of the stem appears to be 

 coated with a floecose tomentum smeared with gluten, in the 

 dried plant the gluten assumes an orange yellow or bright straw 

 color and the tomentum disappears. The species differs from 

 H. g 1 i o c y c 1 u s in its adnate lamellae and from H. e b u r - 

 n e u s in its solid stem with reddish points at the top.
